What This Photographer Captured Is Extremely Rare. You’ll Probably Never See It Again.

(TruthSeekerDaily) Nature photographer Lassi Rautiainen discovered something in the wilds of Finland that’s both touching and surprising. He found a young, lone wolf. That wolf, though, wasn’t really alone. He just chose not to pal around with a pack… because he had a bigger, stronger friend.

For 10 days straight, Lassi witnessed something amazing. A young bear and wolf would meet and spend time together.

They would just hang out in the evenings…

But they would also share their kills.

For predators, especially of different species, that is highly unusual.

However, they were right at home with each other. They trusted each other completely.

There was something about the young wolf that even other bears didn’t mind.

It’s very unusual to see a bear and wolf become friends like this. No one is sure how or why these two bonded in the way that they did. It’s possible that the two met when they were feeling young and insecure, so they hunted together to survive. Regardless of the reason, we love these wild best friends.

They don’t judge each other. They just love each other. Share their wild friendship with others.

Tami Hicks Not looking good for humanity. Although I think Sam was joking. I mean, I just met Sam, but he's a pretty funny guy. Personally I don't think animals are more intelligent than humans. I mean, if that wolf and that bear are your example of animal intelligence, then the fact is that they are an anomaly. That's why they're on the internet. So if they're your example then you'd have to accept that all other animals are in fact stupid. That, or you have some other reason to think that animals are more intelligent than humans. Maybe you think they would understand Sam's joke where Bobby Daniels failed. Personally I think they're really silly things for the most part. Can't open doors. Can't survive the destructive rise of humanity. They might live in a better way, but that's not the definition of intelligence. I might be leading a better life right now than Einstein. Does that make me more intelligent than him? Only if I know WHY my lifestyle is better. Animals are cool and all, running around in a state of nature, but do they know WHY they are cool? Don't think so.

Tami Hicks No way lady I am so good at thinking. That was like nothing to me. I thought that in like three seconds. Everything you've ever thought in your whole life, I thought on a Monday afternoon when I was four.

Probably nothing surprising at all. After all they are in direct competition w/ each other for food and this may be a means of "keep your friends close, your enemies closer." Perhaps they've adapted to their rivalry and learned the benefits of each other. They both possess traits, abilities that neither of them have together, but could benefit from. As well, both often display behaviors of affection towards close "bonds", none of which is show here, but rather a mutual respect.

Reminds me of the relationship of the Lion and the hyena. It is said that when times a good the hyena follows the lion but when times are hard the lion follows the hyena. The hyena will always find food.

We actually do, if you haven't noticed. I'd rather live civilized than be eaten by a FUCKING BEAR at any given moment. I understand that you see a lot of bad stuff going on, but nature will kill you in horrible ways.

Heh. No, human and wildlife relationships are in no way comparable. We have all this "society" stuff interfering. They do not. I'm not saying society is bad -I'm saying it doesn't work for life in the wild. The fact that these sort of inter-species minglings in the wild is particularly fascinating. I rather expect the bears and wolves in question feel a bit weird about it too. In the "Well that's odd but I'll roll with it," but wild animal sense. Which it's totally fascinating that it exists in nature.

Animals that live together have social hierarchies, hence "pecking order", dominants and alphas. Especially in places like farms, maybe its just body language or something a bit more , but these animals do communicate with each other even though they are different species.

You people are funny responding to this. Sure it's cute and all. "why can't humans be so cool?" and "we figure humans are smarter"...if it was YOU and a black bear or a pack of wolves you would be toast. Bear and wolf would be eating your sorry ass and apparently sharing it...lmao!
